This is a semi mystery, very easy.

Take route 2...exit 18 to the correct cemetery, drive to the back, where the pavement ends and find a magnificent dead tree (The Linwood Tree)This tree is apparently gone.
There's a stone wall to the left of the tree between Strong and Patten. In the end of the wall (that is perpendicular to the road) under the last flat rock. If it's not under that rock please notify me and do not move any other rocks searching for it. Thank you.

After receiving a "missing" report I went to check on it. The end of the wall had been dismantled and another wall added to the end, extending left (so it makes an upsidedown L) Built into this new wall (just in back of the corner under the flat end stone) is a cubby holding the box. I can only "assume" that some kind soul saved it for us. Thank you, whoever you are.

Once again the wall is being reconstructed and the same kind soul has rescued the box which is now under the last flat rock at the far end of the wall perpendicular to the road.

Not only is the Linwood tree gone but all the trees that were around it. A brand new "Marvin" family plot has sprung up just to the right of "my" wall but checked the box and all is well.
